9LZ-6.0 High-Efficiency Finger Wheel Rake | 6.0m Working Width for Large Farms

1. Drastically Reducing Forage Loss

Traditional rakes often struggle with "skipping" on uneven ground, leaving behind 5% to 12% of the crop. Our Independent Wheel Suspension allows each of the 12 wheels to track ground contours individually. This ensures the tines maintain a consistent "sweeping" height even in bumpy pastures, keeping forage loss under a strictly controlled 2%.

2. Minimizing Soil & Dust Contamination (Low Ash Content)

Rotary rakes with fixed vertical tines often "dig" into the soil, mixing dirt with the hay. The 9LZ-6.0 uses angled finger wheels rake that roll over the ground. This horizontal sweeping action gathers the forage without disturbing the topsoil, ensuring your bales meet high-protein, low-ash quality standards for premium feed export.

3. Preventing Mold through Fluffy Windrow Formation

Wet pockets in windrows are the primary cause of mold and fermentation issues. The rolling motion of the 720 tines gently "fluffs" the material as it moves inward. This creates a high-volume, breathable windrow that allows air to circulate through the core, accelerating natural sun-drying by up to 30% compared to drag-style rakes.

4. Lowering Operational & Maintenance Overheads

PTO-driven systems are expensive to repair and consume significant horsepower. The 9LZ-6.0 finger wheels rakeis entirely ground-driven, meaning zero energy is wasted on gearbox friction. A standard 35HP tractor can easily manage the 6-meter width, significantly lowering your diesel consumption per hectare.

Advanced Metallurgy

While competitors use standard carbon steel, our tines are forged from 60Si2Mn spring steel. This material offers superior "memory"—it can flex 1,000,000 times and return to its original shape, drastically reducing replacement costs.

Precision Fabrication

Our main frames are constructed using robotic welding on reinforced square-tube steel. This prevents "frame fatigue" and ensures that the 6-meter span remains perfectly aligned even after years of operation on rough terrain.

Global Logistic Support

We maintain a permanent inventory of finger wheel rake parts in multiple regional warehouses. From hydraulic cylinders to individual tines, we ensure that "downtime" is a word our customers rarely have to use.

Q1: How does the ground-drive system work without a PTO?

A: The rake wheels are set at a specific angle (approx. 30-45°) to the direction of travel. Forward motion creates a "rolling" resistance against the crop, which spins the wheels. This is the most efficient way to rake, as it automatically synchronizes wheel speed with ground speed.

Q2: Where can I buy replacement finger wheel rake parts?

A: We provide a comprehensive parts catalog with every machine. You can order directly through our website or local dealers. Common wear items like tines are sold in packs of 60 for convenient seasonal replacement.

Q3: Is the windrow width adjustable for different baler sizes?

A: Yes. By adjusting the trailing angle of the rake arms via the mechanical linkage, you can tighten the windrow to 800mm for small square balers or widen it to 1400mm for large high-density round balers.

Q4: Can one operator handle the setup?

A: Correct. The entire transition from transport mode to work mode is handled via the tractor's hydraulic valves. The single-pin drawbar hitch makes attachment a 2-minute job for one person.

Q5: How does this machine perform on steep hills?

A: The low center of gravity and wide wheel track of the trailed frame provide excellent stability. However, we recommend reducing speed to 6-7 km/h when raking across steep side-slopes to maintain perfect windrow alignment.

"The 9LZ-6.0 is the workhorse of our operation. We cover 400 hectares of alfalfa annually, and this rake hasn't missed a beat. The windrows are so consistent that our baler's capacity increased by 15% because it doesn't have to deal with uneven clumps."

- John D., Commercial Forage Producer (Montana, USA)

"I was worried about the ground-drive on my hilly land, but it works perfectly. My only 'issue' is that the rake finishes the job so quickly that I’ve run out of farm-radio shows to listen to in the cab. Maybe make the next version slower? Just kidding!"

- Bill T., Custom Harvesting Contractor (Texas, USA)

"Quality construction at a very competitive price point. We've switched our entire cooperative fleet to these rakes. The 2% loss rate is real—we've measured it against our old rotary rakes and the difference in harvested tonnage is significant."

- Ricardo S., Agricultural Cooperative Manager (Brazil)

Heavy-Duty Mower Series

The Logic: A clean cut is the foundation of a clean rake. Our mowers utilize high-velocity discs that create a perfectly flat stubble profile. This allows the 9LZ-6.0 tines to glide just millimeters above the ground, capturing every leaf without picking up rocks or debris.

High-Density Baler Series

The Logic: The 1.4m windrow capacity of our rake is specifically designed to fill the intake throat of our balers completely. This ensures that every flake in the bale is uniform, resulting in higher bale density and better stackability for transport.
